Chicago DUI defense lawyer Marilyn A. Miller will ensure that you receive fair treatment and that you aren’t over-charged or mischarged because of faulty equipment or unfair tests. The questions to ask are:

  • Did the police have a legal right to pull you over?
  • Was there probable cause to make a DUI arrest?
  • Did the police have consent to search your vehicle?
  • Was the intoxilyzer working properly?
  • Were the tests administered as required by law?
  • Did the police force you to make incriminating statements?

You do have legal rights when the police pull you over for DUI.

  • You have a right to talk to an attorney, but only after you’ve submitted to a blood or breath test, or have refused to take a test.
  • You have the right to refuse the field sobriety test or the intoxilyzer test. Your driver’s license will be suspended for some period of time if you refuse, but if you think you are over the legal blood alcohol limit, that may be the best option. These tests can be used as evidence against you in court.
  • You have the right NOT to talk to the police. Don’t make statements that will hurt you later.

The consequences of a drunk driving conviction are severe in Illinois, in terms of loss of driving privileges, other penalties and costs, as well as increased insurance premiums. It is essential to have a knowledgeable lawyer represent you in a DUI case.  DUI defense lawyer Marilyn Miller has helped many drivers by getting charges reduced or getting a sentence of DUI court supervision, rather than a conviction and jail time.
